Eight Years
Ago
Signs of
economic downturn brought the threat of fresh redundancies to workers
in the East Midlands employed in the bicycle wheel components
industry. Unions representing all links in the supply chain voiced
solidarity in the fight to save jobs. Members of the Guild of
Brakefitters called for an immediate halt on plans for cutback, while
colleagues from the Handlebarmakers’ Union said the industry was
being steered in the wrong direction. Spokespersons for the Alliance
of Rimforgers and Hubwelders stated that they were diametrically
opposed to what was happening around them, adding, ’we’re all in
this together.’
Fourteen Years Ago
A small but
loyal band of members gathered for the Annual General Meeting of
